Fourth Grade Spelling Menu
Each week, you will have a list of spelling words to practice and learn. These words will help you in your reading and
writing. Therefore, it is important that you work on these words each week. The following is a schedule of assignments
for you to do with your spelling words. You should be sure to study your words each night as you complete your
spelling assignment. Please try to complete your spelling in cursive if you can.
Monday – Choose one item from the “Appetizers” Menu.
Tuesday – Choose one item from the “Entrée” menu below. (Try to pick a different activity each week.)
Wednesday – Choose a different item from the “Entrée” menu below. (Try to pick a different activity each week.)
Thursday – Choose one item from the “Dessert” Menu.
Friday – On Friday we will have a weekly spelling test to see how well you have learned your words.
Remember to pick different activities each week so that you do all the activities.
